Christmas on Mistletoe Farm

I'm a fan of cheesy Christmas movies but this was not that.

Honestly got irritated and frustrated at so many turns. There was Emotional manipulation all over the place that was just glossed over & that really bothered me.

The story was all over the place & while I'm used to Christmas movies being just that this gave me whiplash going from one thing to another without making any sense.

There are so many Christmas movies don't waste your time on this one.

Characters were chaotic to say the least. I usually like just about every Christmas movie but this was disappointing. Instead of a feel good movie this triggered my anxiety repeatedly.

As I read the reviews, I agreed with every one of them. The good, the bad, and the ugly. This movie was just great. Such a range of feelings. I was stupefied and laughing and even a few moments of teary-eyed. It was awful and fabulous, terrible and glorious all at the same time. The kids were fantastic! Buster was my favorite. The adults all hilariously overacted. Beano was very endearing. The animals were perfection. It was very unique and I enjoyed every moment of it! It reminds me of a television version of an English Christmas panto!! You should watch this, just for kicks, and without much expectation.

As you know from watching the previews, this movie is a re-imagining of the classic movie Some Like It Hot (the one with Marilyn Monroe). Unlike the original, this one took place on a farm rather than a train. And instead of it being really funny it was a mishmash of random, random (I mean random) randomness.

The movie was a little predictable because I expected to have the movie be about boring farm life (the easy going life with animals and such) and so I was not at all surprised to see a village militia attacking investors with cow manure and raw meat.

This movie is expected to win many awards at the Oscars this year, particularly in the category of "how to squeeze every minute out of a 90 minute movie". As you watch it, you constantly assume it's wrapping up, only to find out it's not even half way done! Impressive!

Would I watch it again? That is a good ques... duh, yes I would!

Cute and silly. It was over dramatic and overacted, I think on purpose. I think I'm some ways it was meant to be a bit of a spoof on the overdone "save the farm" type Christmas movies with an intense climax all pent up in one moment. Some people may find this cringe or obnoxious but I found it very funny and silly. I had a smile on through most of the movie.

Don't forget all the animals! Baby pigs, baby goats, fabulous ponies, it was adorable. I'm sure kids would love it with the furries and bright colors.

The production quality was a bit low. There were some glitches that I couldn't tell if it was the movie or Netflix.

I watched this not expecting anything except maybe a cheesy hallmark type romcom. It's so ridiculous I laughed like crazy. I kept watching to see if it got worse. And it didn't disappoint! I think it was made for elementary kids, who like slapstick comedy. I kept expecting Macaulay Calkin to jump out anytime. Might be a fun movie for kids. Throw in a little sci-fi and you'd have the perfect film for mystery science theater. And don't forget there's many references to the village people thrown in. And a western theme only those from London who have never left the city could come up with.

The acting is horrid. But the animals are cute. And the story is disjointed. It's a story my 8 year could have easily written and directed.
